ZeroTier Question

@scottalanmiller said in ZeroTier Question:

ZT addresses are assigned by the ZT client, so no DHCP will be involved.

Machines on ZT should add their own addresses to DNS if you are using AD and DNS from Windows in a standard way.

Having things like Exchange be set up will likely require configuring them manually to use the new IP Addressing scheme.

Thanks for the Welcomes. I have it installed on all servers except for our linux boxes (all in due time). I installed it on two full time remote machines both running WIndows 10 and one reports connectivity issues with mapped drives. Should I be bridging anything? Is there something I am missing?

Also, I currently have IPv6 set to unmanaged. Any reason I should change this?

[scottalanmiller]

No, you should not be bridging anything that has been mentioned.

I did notice that the machines that are having issues are both registering their networks as Public. One was truly at a coffee shop. StarSchmucks to be exact. The other was at his house but for some reason his internet shows up as a public spot. I should be able to fix one of those for sure

[Dashrender]

The actual network as in real physical network should not matter public or not... The ZT network does need to be trusted though, and even that should matter on the client side because you aren't sharing your just accessing.

When having a problem open a CMS prompt and ping the severname... Check the ip ita resolving to... It should only use the ZT ip...

[WLS-ITGuy]

@Dashrender I just connected and pinging the server results in an IP address that isn't even on my network. ZeroTier or real LAN.

Exactly this. The ZeroTier network should be reporting as domain.

My LAN is 172.16.x.x

ZeroTier is 192.168.191.x

When I ping the DC I get 198.105.244.130

[Dashrender]

Sounds like you have a DNS issue. You might not be able to use short NetBIOS type names.. you might have to move to FQDN instead.

For example, if you're at StarBucks and the DHCP server gives a suffix of starbucks.com out with the IP, and you ping server1, your system might be pinging server1.starbucks.com instead of server1.yourdomain.com

[WLS-ITGuy]

@Dashrender For this machine it does resolve to a FQDN just with the 198.105.244.130 address instead of the ZT IP of the DC

Are you sure your ZeroTier addresses are what you think they are?

[WLS-ITGuy]

@JaredBusch I hope so. I was looking at ZT Central when I typed it out

[Dashrender]

man, time to just double check... ipconfig in same session you ping server1. Where could that bizzaro IP could have come from? either ZT or DNS, or Hosts file.

Are you sure that you set the auto assign correctly?

[WLS-ITGuy]

@Dashrender Hmm - I just ping'd from my laptop (Mac OS X) and got the same address that I got on the other laptop. Here is the screenshot from my ZT Center.

Here is the info from the machine

Ok, just tested this a little more.

Laptop off the LAN.
Ping from laptop to DC by name = ping resolves over ZeroTier IP.

C:\Users\xxxadmin.xxx>ping xxxdc01

Ping statistics for 10.202.3.11:
    Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss),
Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:
    Minimum = 42ms, Maximum = 45ms, Average = 43ms

But a ping from the DC to the device returns the devices local IP not the ZeroTier IP.

Here is what ipconfig returns on the remote laptop.

The DC is the image on the right. the laptop is the image on the left.

Did you check the client for viruses/rootkits? Had a similar issue where I was getting a public IP return when querying an internal DNS name; turns out the PC had a DNS hijack virus/rootkit on it returning all sort of odd results.
